Joined Saay yesterday to the airport to pick up Karl. On the way there I suggested to Saay that we could offer Karl to stay at the apartment instead of getting a hotel. It would likely be more convenient for them, and save him some money in the process.
Saay would hear none of it though and did not want me to suggest this to Karl. When asking her why, she replied that she wanted to be alone with him.
After a little lighthearted pressure, she admitted that the other girls were part of the reason as well though. She did not want to expose Karl to too much temptation :)
Anyway, met Karl and dropped the both of them off at the Grand President without any problems.
They stopped by in the afternoon to allow Saay to get some more clothes, which gave me a chance to shoot the breeze with Karl a bit. I got the impression that while he is really looking forward to the wedding, he is also very nervous. Guess that is only normal, especially considering he will not be able to understand most people and will be meeting his in-laws for the very first time.
I'm sure he'll do fine though.

PS Likely will not write until after we are back from the wedding, which should be in a few days.
